When my babies wear their fruits and veggies it’s usually because they’re learning to self feed and applesauce has a really difficult time making it from bowl to mouth. We’ve learned that strawberries come out in the wash though carrots will be worn indefinitely.
MooMe’s Fruit Bib Set stylish and less messy alternative. This cute and very realistic set of bibs includes two bibs, one with freshly sliced oranges and the other with ripe, plump strawberries screened on 100% organic cotton bibs. As fun as the bibs are, I’m totally in love with the packaging. The bibs arrive in their own baby food jar package as a set just like you’d see on the grocery store shelf!
MooMe also has a great Veggie Bib Set complete with peas and carrots. Either one would make a wonderful and unique baby gift. You can purchase your own tasty serving of MooMe’s Fruit Bib Set or Veggie Bib Set for $16 from Amazon.com. - Emily H.

Safe and sugar free baby finger foods
We’re delving into the world of finger foods here at my house lately. Because my baby has a very obvious, and already very frustrating sweet tooth, my husband and I are desperate for finger foods that are sugar-free.
First off, bring on the Cheerios! Once we got past that obvious idea, we had to get creative. The Gerber Puffs are tempting, but they are not cheap and they have a fair amount of sugar in them. Here are some other options we’ve come up with:

First off, bring on the Cheerios! Once we got past that obvious idea, we had to get creative. The Gerber Puffs are tempting, but they are not cheap and they have a fair amount of sugar in them. Here are some other options we’ve come up with:
- Adult unsalted, unflavored rice cakes broken into roughly 1/8 pie wedges. My son adores these.
- Whole wheat pasta that has been diced into tiny bits, or run through our new totally awesome ricer. [Seconded. A great tool for babyhood and beyond. - Ed.]
- Unsalted saltines. I know, it's an oxymoron. But they exist, and my kid loves them.
- Kamut Puffs. Nature’s Path makes a line of four types of organic puffed grain cereals. I intend to try out all four (Kamut, Corn, Millet, and Rice). Right now we are doing Kamut, and the kid digs them. Ounce for ounce, they are an inexpensive puffed snack.
- Firm, yet cooked, veggies that can run through the ricer. This means stuff like steamed sweet potato and steamed carrots.
- Cooked peas that have been mashed flat with a fork. [Or squished through a ricer. Sorry. - Ed.]
- Cottage cheese. Apparently, this is not only delicious, but also good for your scalp. Or so it would seem by the way my son likes to eat it.
- Thin whole wheat bagel slices, lightly toasted.
